To The Aotg.com Community,

It is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer be updating Aotg.com. Back in 2007, when we started, there was a lack of access to information about film, television, and commercial editing. We wanted to fix that by creating a central location for content about editing to be stored.

Since then, we've watched the amount of content about editing on the internet grow exponentially. We've also watched social media tools come and go with that growth. Does anyone remember Google Wave!? These social media tools changed how people access and search for media and information. People tend to turn to Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram for their news and information, and those are all great tools to promote your sites, but as a site that aggregates links to other sites for users, it just doesn't work for us.

We will keep the site live but archive the ability to add links and comments. We will keep our database live with the links for those who desire to use it to search for editing information and research.

Our podcast, The Cutting Room, will move over to the Filmmakeru.com website and will continue to be a place for interviews with editors and other film professionals.

Everyone who worked for Aotg.com loved what we created and are proud that we could help so many editors find content that spoke to them.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the various post events worldwide in the coming years!

Yours truly,
Gordon Burkell
Aotg.com Founder

Correcting Oscar’s Six-Year Snubs

April 3, 2013, 02:13 PM

https://www.editorsguild.com/magazine.cfm?ArticleI...

Of the many crafts essential to making movies, only editing came into existence because of the medium itself. Cinematography grew out of photography. Art direction grew out of theatrical design. Sound recording existed independently for decades before its marriage to the moving image. But film editing is a technical and aesthetic craft unique to the motion picture.

Can you still have a career in editing?

The honor is also meaningful to Goldenberg for another reason: for years he was mentored by Michael Kahn, a veteran in the field who accomplished the same feat 25 years ago for his work on "Empire of the Sun" and "Fatal Attraction." What's more, Kahn, a regular Steven Spielberg collaborator, is also nominated this year for cutting "Lincoln," pitting teacher against student.
